Anyone else live in an area with zero Obama events this weekend?

[Murdock]

I just went to the site and there's nothing happening here.. nada.. I'm in the political wilderness here. I knew it was deep red Florida, but I had no idea just how red it was.

1. You guys have storms headed your way. Might that be part of it?

[Murdock]

4. Nope..

No storms headed this way.

Simply no Obama ground game here. :( I wanted to volunteer, get involved.. but zip.. zilch, nada..

[GreenPartyVoter]

12. Well, good on no storms, but bummer on no events. Have you asked around in the DU FL forum?

[RazBerryBeret]

2. We have Obama AND Biden

coming to a suburb of Columbus Ohio tomorrow.

I think I'm gonna miss it, although I'd love to go. hopefully a fellow DUer will make it and post photos!

[Thrill]

3. No worry. You are going to see plenty of the Obamas and Bidens in the next 2 months

[Murdock]

6. Doubtful..

I don't think either give a damn about us here in Florida. It's becoming apparent that they've decided to concede us to McCain.

[PermanentRevolution]

13. I don't think that's true...

But it's a fair bet they'll concentrate on West Palm/Broward/Miami-Dade.

[Thrill]

15. Thats not true at all. Obama has spent more money in FL than any state

[TomInTib]

5. What site? nt

[Murdock]

14. ...

Barackobama.com he lists all the meetings and events, and we're having none.

It's dissapointing that a swing state like Florida has been shunned by the Obama campaign, but eh, oh well..

[TomInTib]

17. Thanks. We have one here.

I didn't know anything about it.

[DFW]

7. I do

But the Düsseldorf vote counts even less than Democratic wards in Ohio did in 2004,
so I can understand the Obama people concentrating their efforts elsewhere.

[Demi_Babe]

8. nope

[PermanentRevolution]

9. Ouch.

Whereabouts?

10. they're doing voter registrations all over this weekend

if you can't find a local office, try the state office...they need those voter registrations by the end of this weekend, so give it a shot. I had to call the national numbe,r they gave me the state number because there was no office here, and then I hooked up with some great people! also, I've been calling people all day to recruit volunteers, so that's another thing you can do, though it may not be as much fun:-(

I'm in red georgia. though we were blue before diebold made us red. good luck and have fun!

11. Well, start a group and get going this is about you.. What do you want?

How do you want the issues facing us in this century to be tackled.. the same way as the last 8 or the a bold new direction.. you can do this.. its about you.. don't you get it.

16. Do you belong to an Obama group...
